TONY Smith has revealed that prop Chris Hill is available to play for Warrington Wolves this season.

The 23-year-old signed for Wolves for an undisclosed fee from Leigh Centurions on July 8, which is within this season’s Super League registration deadline.

While at the time it was announced that Hill would be joining Wolves on a two-year deal from 2012, it has now become clear that Hill – who helped Leigh to a third Northern Rail Cup success in Blackpool in July – is now officially a Warrington player who is continuing to represent Centurions on a dual-registration basis.

With mounting Wolves injury concerns that include the continued absence of prop and skipper Adrian Morley, Hill is a selection option open to the parent Super League club.

“He is now on dual registration with us,” said Wolves boss Smith.

“I’m not sure when he’ll first play for us but he is available and he trains with the squad whenever he can fit it in around his Leigh training.”
